Cincinnati-A violent exchange as police try to make a traffic stop when the suspect tries to flee. An SUV was observed by officers changing lanes with no signal, the backseat passenger was 37 year old Donyale Rowe. He is seen trying to run as police checked the other female passenger. The two officers gave a foot chase after Rowe took off. He pulled a gun and officers tried to taser him, but they say it didn't stop him. The officers shot in what Police Chief Jeffrey Blackwell described the incident as a “fight for survival,” and believes the officers followed the correct procedures in the Tuesday incident. "It was a violent fight. It was literally a fight for survival for both of those officers," Blackwell said.

The female suspect also fed and she was caught later but not charged. The driver was also arrested.
